How Good will Kentucky Be Next Season?? The kind of remind me of the 08 UNC team that just dominated.. UK will be scary good next year
There should be a law against calling Kentucky a "college basketball team".
Pretty obvious there is little correlation to NBA team success when viewing that graphic.
Only James Young and Julius Randle left. Everyone else has announced they are returning.
Cal will face a new problem next year, that being keeping everyone happy with their playing time, especially in the front court. They will have six players that are 6'8 or taller: Alex Poythress 6'8, Trey Lyles 6'10 (incoming freshman, No. 6 hs senior this year), Marcus Lee 6'10, Karl Townes 6'11 (incoming freshman, No. 9 hs senior), Willie Cauley-Stein 7'0 and Dakari Johnson 7'0. All of those players currently play either the power forward or center position, but they are hoping Poythress will develop his shot and ball handling skills a little so he can play the small forward spot.
Starting five will be twins, Poythress, Lee and WCS
Kentucky represents everything that is wrong with college basketball today. Everything. I would certainly hope that WF fans aren't holding up Kentucky as a program that we should try to emulate. If so, it is a sad state of affairs.

Is Duke doing it the wrong way? They will have 9 burger boys next year too.
Not really. Anyone who hasn't figured that out by now probably isn't going to figure it out....but here are a couple of things:
1) Their coach has had two different schools placed on probation for violating NCAA rules. Two different schools on probation for rules violations...and he is still coaching.
2) How many players have left Kentucky after one year in the last 5 or 6 years? Those guys are not "student athletes".

How is Kentucky any different than any other school? Every school in the country would sign a 5-star player if they could and they'd hope he'd be so good as a freshman that it'd be stupid not to leave. The problem isn't Kentucky - it's the system. Kentucky's just taking advantage better than any other school.
